Cool

Anyway this thread reminds me of this for some reason:

[u2b]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/syWJbD1rf0Y&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/syWJbD1rf0Y&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/u2b]

LOL@ tuner boys who think they can hang with an LS3 or Z06.

Even the TT Kits for the Z06 out by tuners rarely push past 6PSI (which is usually enough to get the car to 750whp anyway).
yup, I was just saying GM could have also put out a hotter version of the LS7 w no F/I....a 650hp N/A Zr1 would be very very sick indeed especially w a factory warranty

There's a 4 second difference between the ZR1 and the ACR. The ZR1 is plush compared to an ACR. That thing's a stripped down, fully adjustable track monster.

ACR is an amazing car...........but an ACR is what totaled my 335 so its a love/hate relationship for me.

The LS7 has a lot of room to grow, but 650hp NA at the crank would be asking for a lot.

I'd like to hear it though.
